Alexander Dea plays a selection of recordings of La Monte Young's early minimalist drone pieces and discusses the composer’s life and works. La Monte Young (born Bern, Idaho, 1935) has pioneered the concept of extended time durations in contemporary music for over 35 years.

This program features a number of pieces by La Monte Young with such cryptic titles as “23 VIII 64 2:50:45-3:11AM, the volga delta” some of which can be played at various speeds, as demonstrated in this recording.

These performances are by La Monte Young and Marian Zazeela. (from KPFA Folio)

Skladateljsko ime, ki mu bomo posvetili današnjo oddajo, smo v zadnjih tednih pogosto omenjali.
